JLL and Spare-it: Waste Intelligence Made Visible and Actionable

Dec 2, 2025

The Challenge

JLL set a bold target: reduce Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions by 51 percent by 2030. Yet for its Hong Kong operations, waste remained a blind spot. Before Spare-it, data on daily waste generation, diversion, and contamination was limited and estimated, leaving sustainability, workplace, and facility teams without a shared baseline or a clear way to measure progress.

The Solution

Spare-it equipped JLL with real-time waste intelligence, bringing every stakeholder to the same table. Smart scales and AI computer vision captured accurate data across facilities, while intuitive dashboards transformed it into insights.

With shared visibility, JLL’s Green Team and Facilities group could pinpoint waste-to-landfill hot spots, coordinate targeted interventions, and track results as behaviors evolved. By providing clear and measurable data, the dashboards fostered a culture of accountability throughout the organization.

“With Spare-it, we're able to see exactly what waste we are collecting and how much of that waste is being diverted. And it helps us target our efforts and resources a lot more accurately.” — Tunde Hazzan, Regional Compliance Manager, JLL Hong Kong

The Outcomes

From Q2 2022 to Q4 2025, JLL achieved measurable and sustained progress across key waste-performance indicators:

  • 66 percent reduction in monthly waste-to-landfill

  • Diversion rate nearly doubled, increasing from 27 percent to 58 percent

  • 42 percent reduction in total monthly waste generated

  • 33,679 kilograms of CO₂-equivalent emissions avoided

These results reflect more than operational improvement. With accurate, real-time data, JLL empowered its teams to take informed action, refine sorting practices, and build a culture of shared accountability for sustainability.
